Peptides support firmer-looking skin, and niacinamide and panthenol keep it comfortable. Tiny spicules (hydrolyzed sponge) are part of what Celimax call A-Shot, which they say is designed to help the actives absorb; they are also why you feel a light prickling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we chose it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe chose it as a step up for people already comfortable with a gentle retinal, such as \u003ca href=\"\/products\/txa-6-niacinamide-10-retinal-serum-30-ml\"\u003ePurito TXA 6% + Niacinamide 10% + Retinal Serum\u003c\/a\u003e: the retinal is the reason to buy it, with peptides and niacinamide in a supporting role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe look of fine lines and loss of firmness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRough or uneven-looking texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExperienced retinoid users ready for a stronger retinal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn evening anti-ageing step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNot ideal if\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou are new to vitamin A or your skin is sensitive: start with \u003ca href=\"\/products\/txa-6-niacinamide-10-retinal-serum-30-ml\"\u003ePurito TXA 6% + Niacinamide 10% + Retinal Serum\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou are pregnant or breastfeeding: retinoids are not recommended without advice from a doctor or pharmacist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou dislike a tingling feel: the spicules cause a light prickling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetinal (0.1%, as Celimax state): smoother-looking texture and the look of fine lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalmitoyl tripeptide-1 and tetrapeptide-7 (Matrixyl 3000): firmer-looking skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNiacinamide: helps even tone and supports the barrier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanthenol: comfort and hydration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydrolyzed sponge: spicules that cause the prickling feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTexture and finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA light, creamy serum.
